Chapter 586: The Current Strength of the Gu Lei Kingdom and Preparations for Declaring an Empire

"So that's how it is, I'll come help too!" Shui Bing'er took the initiative to step forward and assist.

Who would have thought that such an exquisite and beautiful girl would not mind the rot and stench of the corpses in the slightest.

Her awareness as a Spirit Master was truly quite impressive.

There were about thirty-some Spirit Beast corpses here; judging by their age, they ranged from twenty or thirty thousand years to fifty or sixty thousand years.

The probability of a soul bone forming is related to many things: the strength of the Spirit Beast itself, its state before death, and so on; of course, the most important factor is its cultivation.

The higher the cultivation, the greater the probability of a soul bone forming.

If one were to say that a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast is one hundred percent.

Then between eighty thousand and one hundred thousand years, it is around sixty percent; if the Spirit Beast itself is extremely powerful and filled with endless resentment before death, this probability can increase to eighty or even ninety percent.

Between fifty thousand and eighty thousand years, it is thirty to fifty percent.

It decreases in sequence.

The Spirit Beasts here all met the criteria for a high probability of soul bone formation; their cultivation was not weak, their species were not bad, and since they were all killed by Yan Wang, who is also a Spirit Beast, they must have been filled with immense hatred.

"Haha, found it!" Sure enough, after only a short while, Shui Bing'er, a girl whose luck was already quite strong, found a fire-attribute head bone inside the corpse of a Burning Insect; judging by the age, it was around fifty thousand years.

"My Lord, this subordinate has also found one."

"My Lord, there is one here as well."

Following that, two more people called out loudly.

Out of thirty-some Spirit Beasts, a total of three soul bones were produced; this probability was not low at all, after all, most of these Spirit Beasts were around thirty thousand years old, which was indeed about what Feihuang had estimated.

These three soul bones were all fire-attribute: one head bone, one left arm bone, and one right leg bone.

Feihuang took the soul bones, "Not bad. Next, bury these corpses properly, and we can head back."

"Understood!"

Naturally, Feihuang did not need to personally handle the burial of corpses; Xun Yu's soldiers were highly efficient, and soon, rows of graves were built on the wasteland.

Feihuang stored the two limb soul bones into his Spirit Tool, and as for the head bone, he handed it to Dian Wei again after he finished absorbing his hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring and soul bone.

E Lai now had all four limb soul bones filled and possessed a hundred-thousand-year torso bone; the only thing missing was a head bone.

This fifty-thousand-year head bone could be considered a top-tier item, and since it was compatible with E Lai's attributes, it was very suitable for him.

Having absorbed a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring, a hundred-thousand-year torso bone, and a fifty-thousand-year head bone in one go, Dian Wei, who had just reached the Title Douluo realm, saw his soul power break through to the peak of Level 93; at his cultivation speed, it was estimated that he would be able to break through again in less than half a year.

It was just that between Level 94 and Level 95, more time would be needed to accumulate soul power.

However, his actual combat power was not something ordinary people could compare to: full soul bones, a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring, plus Ring Detonation.

Even if he were to single-handedly fight the Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao from back then, Feihuang had absolute confidence that his E Lai could beat Tang Hao so badly that even A Yin wouldn't recognize him.

Although the current Clear Sky Sect Master Tang Xiao was at Level 97, E Lai would not be afraid to face him head-on; if it were a fight to the death, the situation would likely be an eight-to-two split, with E Lai at eight and Tang Xiao at two.

And if he were to reach Level 95, it would be ten-to-zero; Dian Wei would definitely win, and it would likely be a crushing victory. This was the strength Dian Wei possessed today.

The group left the Extreme North, and at the fork in the road returning to the Gu Lei Kingdom, Feihuang said to them, "Everyone, you go back to the kingdom first; I am going to the Star Dou Great Forest."

"Yes, My Lord. When you return, I think our Gu Lei Kingdom should really start moving, shouldn't it?" Xun Yu laughed.

"That goes without saying!" Feihuang's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

His goal for this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest was to absorb the Spirit Ring of Red Hare; by then, he would surely break through to Level 99 and become a Limit Douluo.

At that time, even Qian Daoliu in the Offering Hall or Bo Saixi on Sea God Island, who could borrow the power of gods, would be far from his match.

He would then make another trip to Sea God Island to bring Lv Lingqi back; she should have broken through to Title Douluo by now as well.

By then, their four-person squad would be reunited: Lord Nan Feihuang, warriors Dian Wei and Lv Lingqi, and strategist Xun Yu.

The time to launch a war against the entire continent and unify it had arrived.

"Little brother, good luck. I'll head home first and hold a Title Ceremony for my Han Han as an auspicious start!" As a princess of the kingdom, one of the Spirit Douluo-level experts within the kingdom, and Feihuang's deputy general, Nan Feiling naturally knew some of the kingdom's development plans.

She was the most excited at this moment; her husband, father, mother, and brother were all Title Douluos. Aside from the Qian Family of the Spirit Hall, which other family had such prestige?

"Mm, Third Sister's idea is good. Wenruo, after you go back, notify Father to start preparing. When I return, he can fulfill his dream of many years: to declare himself Emperor!" Feihuang ordered.

To dominate the world and unify the continent, one must first have a legitimate name.

The mere Gu Lei Kingdom did not have the confidence to unify the world; it must first become the Gu Lei Empire.

"My Lord, rest assured, I have already made arrangements." Xun Yu always planned ahead.

Before arriving at the Extreme North, he had already spoken with Nan Tianchen; once they returned, they could begin preparing for the imperial declaration.

Nan Tianchen had waited for this day for far, far too long.

Today, under Xun Yu's years of governance, the Gu Lei Kingdom had elite troops and ample provisions, a full treasury, and a national strength that had long since surpassed the limits of a kingdom.

The national territory had also increased threefold after incorporating the Tianshuang Principality and the Hagen Dazs Kingdom.

As for top-tier experts, Nan Feihuang, Dian Wei, Lv Lingqi, Lan Xue, and Yu Yuanzhen were all rare to find opponents on the continent.

There were also the group-combat specialist Dugu Bo, the formation expert Nan Tianchen, the martial soul fusion duo Long Gong, the Brute Force Douluo Jia Kui who was there to make up the numbers, and the Mountain-Opening Douluo Pan Feng, among other Title Douluos.

There were also many Spirit Douluo powerhouses, such as the rare Food System Spirit Douluo Zhang Xingcai, the Ice Phoenix Shui Bing'er, the formation master Nan Feiling, the Brute Force Sect Master Jia Chong, the Element Academy dean, and that group of genius youths on Sea God Island.

With such formidable strength, if not now, when? After bidding farewell to everyone, Feihuang immediately headed toward the Star Dou Great Forest.

At his current speed, traveling at full force, it would not take long to cross the continent; in less than half a day, he was already at the entrance of the Star Dou Great Forest.

In the past, he had been somewhat cautious when coming here, fearing he might disturb the high-level Spirit Beasts inside, but now, he had no scruples at all and walked in openly.

Even when he reached the depths, those high-level ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts, sensing the sharp aura constantly radiating from Nan Feihuang, did not dare to approach in the slightest, fearing they would not be able to escape in time.
